    Summary

    By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong.

    For Robert, that was V. For V, that was David. For David, that was dealing with the revelation that he now had a father in his life. Now had the man who was supposed to help raise him. Help him with his problems, and maybe extend the courtesy to his friends. So far, V had come through on most of that...albeit nearly eighteen years late. The man had given him and his mother improved places to live. Supplied him and his friends with plenty of gear and work to stay sharp.

    But David knew V has his own problems to deal with. Corporate beauracy. Shades of his past casting shadows on the present that threatened to take away everything he had worked to build. V hadn't shied away from his problems, and David wasn't about to let the favor go unreturned.

    Summary

    In Night City, there’s always been violence, mayhem, and a general sense that death could quite literally be around the corner. That’s the rub for the most dangerous city in the world. Of course, no one expects to be one of those unfortunate souls until they’re staring down the barrel of a gun.

    Adrian Walker was one of those people, content with his lot until his mother is killed in front of him, his arm and eye are destroyed, and his home is burned to the ground. With nothing left to his name but a gun and a choice, he must fight his way out of this predicament by any means necessary, both for his own sake and the sake of the only family he has left. He might not be special, and he might not be strong, but he is beyond determined to carve out a place and get revenge for him and his... or die trying.

    But who is the man that saved him, and why did he agree to train him? Who did his gun belong to before his mother stole it? And who the hell is this short, crazy woman who keeps flirting with him?

    Now with a TV Tropes page! Somehow. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/CyberpunkEdgerunnersTheRebelPath

    Summary

    NB: I have crossposted this story to Royalroad under the title System Override.

     

     

    A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden.

    His mother’s insistence on his current lifepath as a corpo has done much the same.

    David is a speeding ball of fire hurtling towards an unknown destination, and his mother’s death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction.

    So he does what any teenager with no more fucks left to give does—he chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology that had been forced on him as a child—finding out the immense potential within him as a result.

    Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we’re fucking at it?

    Top of Arasaka Tower.

    Night City Legend.

     

     

    God.

    Summary

    He was four when fire burst from his lips.

    Five when the ground trembled beneath his feet.

    Six when light shone from his eyes.

    Seven when his shadow twisted and warped.

    Eight when water surged from his hands.

    And nine when wind settled around his shoulders.

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya discovered he wasn't actually quirkless a few years after his initial diagnosis; he had a voice-quirk that allowed him to alter people's thoughts, emotions and even memories when he sung or hummed. Knowing this, he decided to keep his quirk a secret and become the vigilante Spirit to prove that he had a purpose.

    But, his lifestyle wasn't healthy or sustainable; how long could he keep it up until he realised he needed to be saved?

    And how long would it take for him to WANT to be saved?

    Summary

    All it takes is one choice.

    A once-viridian butterfly flaps burned wings, and subsurface ripples intertwine, cascading into an exponential cacophony that threatens to drown not just Japan, but the very world. Whether to chaos, evolution, or control, Japan is sure to sink in the rising tide of villainy, as good intentions twisted by sinister minds pave the road to hellish destruction. Or, then again, perhaps not.

    A choice made differently in the childhood years of Midoriya Izuku changes everything, and a more determined Izuku holds an iridescent strength of will, eclipsing even causality.

    The nature of such obstacles is impermanence in the face of Determination, after all.

    Summary

    Izuku had never known who his father was but his mother had let enough things slip that he thought he figured it out. But when he asks the centuries old villain if he is his father, the other must admit he has almost no memories of before his head trauma from All Might, leaving both to wrongly assume he truly is his child.

    or

    A ridiculous story where Izuku believes All for One is his father but in fact All Might is. Comedy and chaos follow in the wake of this misunderstanding.

    Summary

    Ever heard of a giant Megacorp falling down from the sky? Neither did Night City.
    Until a suriving group of UNSC came down with a mishmash of a UNSC Carrier ship. That certainly gave Night City something to talk about for months.

    After consecutively suffering form the Created Conflict and the Banished Assault, UNSC Revenant decides to land on Earth to resetablish a base, regroup with the other surviving UNSC groups, and recover the strength to Finish the Fight.

    Now Night City watches in awe as they see Spartans in action, various alien technologies outperform and overpower the pre-existing Megacorps, and UNSC slowly change the city for the better.
    To the horror of the people and to the excitement of the Corpos.
    ... Wait, would it be excitement of the people and to the horror of the Corpos? It pretty much depends on what we're talking about?
    Well alright, then...

    Oh, and we manage to standardize genuine healthy foods. I'm not eating anything that tastes and has nutritional values worse than the rations UNSC gives us, you know. Those things already tastes ass.

    (Inspired by both the main Halo series and Red vs Blue)
